About Kimberly Baltz

Kimberly Baltz has been writing children’s stories since
she was about eight years old. She began writing poetry
when she was eleven years old. Recently, she decided to
combine her love of poetry and children’s stories to write
stories about Frieda, a fox who regularly visits her family’s
home in Grand Lake, Colorado.

Ms. Baltz attended the prestigious University of Pennsylvania,
receiving her Bachelor of Science in Economics from the Wharton
School of Business. She went on to attend the University of Colorado School
of Law. Only recently has she returned to her original love of writing and
artwork. Kimberly also enjoys creating artwork with pastels and acrylics.

Marty Petersen grew up drawing, painting, sculpting &
carving anything he could get his hands on; luckily his
parents supported this and allowed him to continue to
develop along the artistic vein.

Marty attended Kendall School of Design in Michigan,
receiving degrees in Illustration and Commercial Art. He
then moved to Colorado with a fellow Kendall graduate &
formed an Ad Agency in Aspen. Marty worked as designer/illustrator for
several years, also carving signs for local businesses & restaurants, before
relocating to the Colorado Front Range where he resides now. Best known
as the artist that illustrated the "Justification For Higher Education" poster,
his first love is illustrating children’s stories. Marty’s website is

Frieda the fox lives in Grand Lake, Colorado at the headwaters
of the Colorado River, right next door to the Rocky
Mountain National Park. If you visit the town of Grand
Lake, you just might see her walking down Main Street!
